    voyage with all the crew on the 28th Oct.

    "From many storms and dangers
    the Lord delivered me
    Through Neptune's waves and Boris from
    all the set me free.
    But at a rock nigh here I lost my
    tender breath
    In high rough waves and breaking seas
    I suffered pangs of Death"
